    So I'm Building Stuff Again. 150g Plus Fish Room.

    Yeah mine looks like that but with algae growing on the carbon filters. Still make 0 TPS water so I don't worry about it.

    Dang Cody, I am late to the party! I thought you were building a RO cabinet at first. Mine is next to my tank in the garage so it collects algae in the canisters. Might have to steal this idea and put everything INSIDE the cabinet door. :) BTW, did I miss the post you must have done on the...

    Should I include the nest of black widows in the picture? :LOL:

    The Cost Of LEDs

    @Cody let me know if you are building a new light...I am interested. Years ago I played around with LEDs building a few for the garage and often thought about building an entire light just because I could. The catch is those knockoff reef lights can do it better than I can even if their power...

    Rural Internet Usability & Stability

    There you go! Best $500 I ever spent. I was surprised that mine turned to face mostly north rather than straight up. So think about that if you have any tall trees just north of the dish.

    Rural Internet Usability & Stability

    That is great! I bought a mofi5400 cellular router a couple years ago and since we have a two story I mounted it at the very top of my attic above the 2nd story. This puts it pretty high but still inside....you should see how I threw a string over a rafter brace and tied it to a box/cradle and...

    Time to clean those pumps!

    Rural Internet Usability & Stability

    I wish I had seen this post last year....Nomad sucks along with all those LTE "unlimited" companies...ask me how I know. :) Also I do not think the cell companies are allowing data sharing on their towers...in other words Verizon does not allow ATT users to use their data...cell calls yes, but...

    Starlink Bummer

    Nice! Out here in Frelsburg there was nothing but ATT and Verizon LTE. I checked a few of the microwave companies but we were about a mile out of range. The ATT tower is 8 miles away and the Verizon is 4. The first year I bought a sim card off a guy and it was unlimited and worked...

    Should i buy the apex DOS?

    Well guess I am the fly in the punch bowl. :) I have had nothing but issues with all my neptune products including a dead DOS. I love the idea of the apex and maybe one day I will regain some more confidence in their company but for now I would recommend a stand alone doser. My POS jebao...

    Starlink Bummer

    Just got my Starlink last week and VERY happy. We finally have good internet out here in the country! I dont yet have the pole mount or the ethernet splitter (new version doesn't have this for some stupid reason) so it is just sitting in the back yard but still averaging 30mbps and ranges up...

    Tesla solar panels experience

    I would expect the prices to come down at some point as they sell more and more of them to other states where energy prices are stupid high. I REALLY like that generator plug in for the battery to recharge it! I wonder if that would work for my smaller portable generator. See the battery is...

    “Load Shed Events” -Abbott

    Guys one big issue last year was they shut down the nuclear power plant in south Texas because it was not designed to run under 32 degrees. It was much cheaper to not enclose much of the facility like they do up north and since it very rarely freezes in south Texas it was a gamble that usually...
